Hello, I've been using xampp for many years and this is the frist time I've needed to come here for support. The only reason I'm coming here and not the fedora forums is because the error message recieved asked me to report my issue here. If it's an issue with fedora I'll be more than happy to direct my issue towards them.

So I snagged a copy of 1.7.7 today after a fresh installation and extracted it's contents to /opt. The extraction was completely successfuly as always. My issue is with starting up lampp, here's a copy of what I get when running "sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start" in the terminal:

Permissions must be denied by SELinux right? I'm obviously running the command as root so I have root permissions, something is interfering and I'm not sure what as I'm somewhat new to fedora. I've ran lampp and wampp for many years and never had any problems so having any errors at all is new.

Thanks, matt.

edit:Alright so I just noticed a SELinux alert saying it prevented php from starting and I need to set it to allow something to let it work, something I'm not familiar with at all.

SELinux is preventing php from using the execstack access on a process.

Plugin: catchall_boolean you want to allow php to have execstack access on the processIf you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack executable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable should be reported in bugzillaYou must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'allow_execstack'boolean.setsebool -P allow_execstack 1

SELinux is preventing php from using the execstack access on a process.

Plugin: catchall you want to allow php to have execstack access on the processIf you believe that php should be allowed execstack access on processes labeled unconfined_t by default.You should report this as a bug.You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.Allow this access for now by executing:# grep php /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol# semodule -i mypol.pp

Apparently I didn't pharse my search properly the first time for google. After more looking I found a forum indicating that these commands can prevent SELinux from interferring with xampp and after running
